Falling? Or Flying?

Everyone wants to fly. We don't want to fall. But the first step to flying is falling. Only those baby birds which fall from their nest, fly. It's nature to fall before you fly. If you stay on your tree in fear of breaking your bones, you can never dance in the wind, chase the sun, clasp the clouds, break the rain or provoke the seas beneath you. Why stay in a tree when you can have a whole forest? You could be happy in your tree. But you will not grow. Flap your wings and leap out of your tree. It's okay to fall and hurt your wings. The pain of your broken wings, the disappointment, will make you try harder. Your bleeding wings will push you to think, practise, watch and learn the trick of flying. You may see your friends flying already, out of reach from you. You may feel slow, lacking, frustrated but don't give up. Fly at your own pace. Every bird has different wings to fly. When it's your time, you will fly the highest in the azure sky. But remember, if you want to fly on top the world, then the crash will be that painful. Remember the rules, fly by the rules to land well.

 Own your flight, Own the skies.
